Well, the title of this flick in
the download world was Dragon Lore, Curse of the Shadow, that’s why it
immediately caught my attention. The last dragon movie that really kicked butt
was Reign of Fire, so I got my hopes up that this one could be an awesomeness
contender.
The opening scene definitely
included a dragon without delay, but it was short lived considering that an Elf
shot it down dead. Riding that beautiful dragon was an Orc. Hmmm elves, Orcs,
Dragons, do we hear The Lord of the Rings ? Yes, all creatures are great adaptations
from the block buster movie. FX & visual effects were impressive but the
story went a bit dawdling & fight scenes were noticeably long-drawn-out. Still,
you will be kept on your seat waiting for that WOW scene. In the end, the
conclusion was too easy, too simple a confrontation for the hero & villain.
Actually I can’t really call the God of Death a villain at all cause he hardly
put up a fight. So if you guys are expecting fight scenes between Gods &
Mortals ala Clash of the Titans, this is not the movie for you.
Overall, it was a tolerable watch
although I have to admit that some may fall asleep while watching it LOL, mind
you – I didn’t. I have a long range of tolerance hehehe
